Pharmacological modulation of MRAP2 protein on melanocortin receptors in the sea lamprey

Melanocortin receptors (MCRs) and their accessory proteins (MRA Ps) evolutionarily first appear in the genome of sea lamprey. The most ancient melanocortin system consists of only two melanocortin receptors (slMCa and slMCb) and one MRAP2 (slMRAP2) protein, but the physiological roles have not been...
